Academy: ‘This was a community effort. I’m just really proud’
Continued from Page 1A
Cannon Beach Elementary
School closed in 2013 due to
tsunami safety concerns and
budget shortfalls. Now the
academy has secured the lease
for a temporary space on Sun-
set Boulevard and has hired a
director to lead the school into
its first year.
“The initial reason for want-
ing to start this school was
because I wanted my son to be
close to where I lived,” Sim-
mons said. “I think it’s import-
ant for the young families who
live in our community to have
their children in school where
they live and work so they can
interact with their kid in the
school day.”
New director
There are a lot of things
that are bringing the director of
Cannon Beach Academy to the
North Coast.
Amy Moore loves walk-
ing by the salty sea water with
her dog, she said, and visit-
ing Cannon Beach at her fam-
ily vacation home for the past
20 years has let her get to know
the place.
But the main reason she’s
taking the position comes from
her passion for children.
“My passion for education
comes from supporting stu-
dents who have a hard time
being supported in school,”
Moore said.
Moore, 40, has worked in
special education in a variety
of facets at public and private
schools throughout Oregon
for 11 years. She has served
in leadership roles at La Salle
Prep, a Catholic school in Mil-

Simmons said he is confi-

“I got the impression that
she has the ability to understand
what a problem is and figure
out a way to solve it,” he said.
“As a leader when you take
over an organization, the best
way to start is to observe. But I
anticipate that as we move for-

Cannon Beach Fitness Center.
Once approved, the academy
can move forward with con-
struction over the summer.
Moore said she is reviewing
teacher applications as well. If
students are still interested in
enrolling, there will be a sec-
ond enrollment period start-
ing Tuesday through the end
of June. In the second enroll-
ment period, charter schools
are legally obligated to choose
students with a lottery sys-
tem, meaning if there are more
applications than open spots
the school will randomly select
students from the pool as spots
become available.
“Overall, this was a
community effort, including
Seaside School District, and
I’m just really proud,” Sim-
mons said.
